Azide-Alkyne Click Chemistry

Classic Click Chemistry uses copper, Cu(I), to catalyze the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of an alkyne with an azide to form a 1,2,3-triazole.1,2 Sources of Cu(I) include copper(I) iodide, copper(I) bromide, copper turnings, or copper (II) sulfate (CuSO4) and a reducing agent.1 However, the ...

Strain-promoted alkyne-nitrone cycloaddition (SPANC)

SPAAC can be carried out efficiently. On the one hand, the chemical potential energy of azide and alkyne substrates as reactants is very high. Diaryl-strained-cyclooctynes, such as dibenzylcyclooctyne (DIBO), have found application in reacting with 1,3-nitrones in strain-promoted alkyne-nitrone ...

Reactions of strained alkenes in click chemistry

Strained alkenes leverage strain relief as a motivating factor, enabling their engagement in click reactions. Trans-cycloalkenes, typically cyclooctenes, and other strained alkenes like oxanorbornadiene, participate in click reactions with various counterparts, including azides, tetrazines, and ...
